Draft Rules
There is no draft order but for each round you must wait until everyone has picked before making your picks for the next round. If you don't post a pick within 24 hours then I will assign you 2 players at random. YOU MUST SELECT 2 PLAYERS AT A TIME.

Sweet, that's fair enough.

 

[hedger_14]

You might want to edit that post. There should only be 10 rounds if everyone plays each other twice or do you mean 12 rounds as 10 rounds for group, semis and final.

Thanks

 

[blake]

Admire Manyumwa and JP Duminy

Also - can I clear up some rules?

The player is still required to have played 20 senior matches correct? We are using FC averages to determine the batting or bowling ability, and is there 16 players per side?

Yes, the player is required to have played at least 20 senior matches in cricket and FC averages are being used. And CricSim only allows 15 players in a squad.

Andy Flower and Mark Boucher. Sorry for the late pick.
